NEW ENTERPRISE.—We learn there
Li a project on foot,and a company already
formed for the purpose .of building new
Iron Works in our town. It is purposed
to.build a Rolling Mill for tho manufacture
of sheet and boiler iron,' and also a factory
for the manufacture of nails. We have
every facility for such manufactures in
our midst, and we can see no reason why
such a project would not prove eminently
successful. Let the good work go on.
r/ItE.—Between twelve and one o'clock
on the L'. - .2nd inst..a fire broke - outin a brick
dwelling situated in an alley; between Lo
cust and Walnut. When first discovered
the flames were issuing through the roof.
It was extinguished.before much damage
was done. The tire originated through the
carelessness of the children of the occu
pants, who.were colored. The building is
owned by R. Williams, and insured in the
Columbia 'Mutual. The "Old Columbia"
was - promptly - on'the spot, but herservi
eeS were not required.

EMBEZZLEMENT.--Margaret Lloyd
was arrested by Constable McGinnis, and
taken before Samuel Evans, Esq., on Sat
urday last, upon complaint of Stephen
Miller.
The facts of the case are the following.—
A year or more ago, Chas. Stotts, (colored)
enlisted soldier, went with the defendant
to the Columbia Bank and deposited in
her name a sum of money supposed to be
,5250,00. It was understood that said Mar
garet was to forward money in such sums
and as often as needed to said Stotts. Af
ter sending $1.5, Stotts died, leaving two or
more children. The co - .)Tlitinent was ap
pointed guardian for said children and
advised to take this mode to recover what
sum or sums of money were in the bands
of defendant.
The testimony%was macle up principally
of a.rehash 3f several conversations had
with the defendant. As the prosecution
failed 'x) show that there ever was more
than 5200,00 in said Bank,. belonging to
said Stotts or his heirs, and that the money
was there yet, the Justice after several
exhaustive arguments from counsel, dis
charged the defendant.
Gossip.—This is alt indispensable ar
tangement in every community. The
tongues of some persons would cleave to
the roof of their mouths if they had not
daily opportunities to discuss the merits
and demerits of their fellow-beings. Every
town or village has its "clique" of gossip
pars, who daily throw on their outer gar
ments, and stroll out to meet their affinity,
and rehetirse the latest, or receive what
said affinity has to impart, then away they
go, and scatter broadcast over tl.e land,
all they have acquired, making such ad
ditions as they think the case requires,—
Such beings are it nuisance and well de
serve the title ot "gossippem" They are
always very careful not to look at their
own antecedents, and never think of the
old adage, that "those who live in glass
houses should never throw stones," but
despite everything, they have their say.—
We have no doubt that after their shallow
brains are emptied of the load that they
carried, that for a few minutes, they feel
relieved, but 'tis only a respite, for if they
do not hear, it is easy for them to "manu
facture to order" anything that will tend
to keep their glib tongues in motion. They
will make visits of condolence—to all ap
pearance—but in reality only to see and
hear anything that would keep the 'clique'
in sorts. Such is a description of shallow
beings with which every community is
burdened. They should always remem
ber that "those that are without sin should
east the first stone," and by so doing we
know that they would not throw one.
WASHINGTON'S BIRTIIDAY IN CO
LUMBlA.—Wednesday last being the 134th
anniversary of the birth of Washington, it
was observed in a becoming manner. The
day was ushered in by the ringing of bells,
and tiring a salute on Institute Hill. All
places of business were closed, and every
one remembered the day and hallowed it.
The sun never shone brighter; the citi
zens never in a gayer mood,for all remem
bered that on the last anniversary a differ
ent state of affairs existed in the country.
Now all is peace ; loved ones then absent
are now restored and happiness is vouch
safed to all,
There was no parade or pomp, but each
celebrated the day in their own manner.—
The Fair of the German Reformed Church
was the attraction in the evening.
—We were handed a copy of the "Ulster
County Gazette," published at Kingston,
N. Y., Jan. 4th, 1800, which is in mourn
ing for Washington and contains a full
account of his death and funeral. The
paper has been carefully preserved in the
family of E. K. Smith, Esq. We extract
front its columns the following :
"On Wednesday last, (Dee. 14th,) the
mortal part of Washington the Great—the
Father of his country and friend of man,
was consigned to the tomb, with solemn
honor and funeral pomp.
"A multitude of persons assembled ,from
many miles around, at Mount Vernon, the
choice abode and last residence of the il
lustrious chief. There were the groves—
the spacious avenues, the beautiful and
sublime scenes, the noble mansion—but
alas !• the august inhabitant was now no
more. That - great soul was gone. His
mortal part was there indeed; but, ah
how affecting ! how awful the spectacle of
such worth and greatness, thus; to mortal
oyes fallen,!—Yes, fallen ! fallen !"
+. l Tn 1751 ho took, part in the war
with France; married in 1759 ; way ap
pointed a delegate from- Virginia to . the
first general Congress in 1774 ; was appoint
ed General in June, 3775 ; resigned his
commission,after endorsing it with victory
at the close of 1783; was inaugurated the
first President, April 30, 1789; retired front
public life in 1796, and died on the 14th of
December, 1799, aged 67 years.
THE 'ANNIVERSARY SUPPER..--The
annual supper of Shawnee Encampment,
I. 0. 010. F., which took place in their
room in Odd Fellows' Hall, on the evening
of the 22nd,—well, to say that it was a
splendid success would not half express it.
It did credit to all concerned, and gave
great satisfaction to the "aching void" of
hungry guests. Too much praise cannot
be given to the caterers, Messrs. Bruner,
Tille, §hrgedop and Humble, for the labor
and etiention they bestowed in their ar
rangements of the nifair which shows
conclusively that they are eminently quali
fied "to keep a hotel." They were deter
mined that their follow-opaiftsmim nnd
guests should enjoy them§OVes to their
heart's content,and they succeeded admira
bly. The "bill ot: hire" presented many
rareluxuriesAnd they were supplied in
great abundance, had were done up in
such a manor that the most fastidious
epicure could not rind fault. Evextything
which the inner man could desire%was'there
"enough and to spare." .As an illustra
tion of the tenacity With which some of
the "PatriarchB" , lingered around .the fes
tive board—we are:told ant one,a Captain,
eat three distinct times ;before he could
finally make up ills-mind to leave-oysters,
ice cream, peaches, coffee, cake and other
et ceteras, disappeared with a gusto won
derful to behold. We deoline to -refer to
the consequences which probably ensued
from his hearty meal.
.All were highly pleased with .the ban
quet, and.the whole affair winking be re
membered by the craft. Such. entertain
ments.tend to bind the brotherhood togeth
er more strongly and exert a beneficial in
fluence. After the supper, Gen. J. W.
Fisher delivered a stirring address,su Rabic
lo 'the occasion, which was fi ecolved with
great favor. We regret that time and
space forbids noticing this sumptuous
affair at length. We will, however state
that one pleasing incident transpired.—
About the time the guests were in the
midst of their festivities, a raid was made
on the Encampment by the ladies—wives
of the members of the patriarchal order.—
About twelve or fifteen in number "as
sailed the camp," and applied ;or admis
sion. They wero,of course "taken in," and
an idea suggested itself that the REBECCA.
DEGREE should be conferred upon the un
expected visitors; which was done by J.
Westhaeffer of Lancaster, assisted by
Philip Shreiner. After which the "lady
Odd Fellows" set down to partake of the
hospitalities of the Patriarchs.

Fi
nances :
Receipts to date,
Orders paid,
The following report of the Sanitary
Committee was then read, and on motion
of Mr. Gossler was accepted :
To the Town Council of the Borough of
Columbia,
The Sanitary Committee would respect
fully report that they have examined a
large portion of the Borough, and Lind that
its sanitary condition in many places is
not such as the natural location or site of
the town warrants, and, in consideration
of the fear of an epidemic during the coin
season, think that every precaution
should be used by our citizens to avoid
such a calamity.
We would therefore suggest that your
body recommend to the citizens to have
their houses, yards, cellars and alleys well
cleansed as early as possible, and kept in
such order during the Summer season.
Many houses at this season of the year
have water in the cellars," particularly
those in the vicinity of the canal basin,
and on an alley running from 2nd to Front
streets, at a point where said alley crosses
an extension of the Reading 4.t. Columbia
Railroad. The parties owning and living
in said houses should be notified to remedy
the evil as soon as possible.
We would recommend that arrange
ments be made with the Columbia Water
Co., to obtain a supply of water for . wash
ing out gutters and alleys, and for other
sanitary purposes.
Your committee would also recommend
an ordinance prohibiting the erection of
dwellings on alleys, as we kind many ten
ements in such locations which cannot be
otherwise than pestilential in case of an
epidemic.
We would also recommend the appoint
ment of sub-committees of citizens to ex
amine all houses, buildings, yards, cellars,
.Cc., early in the spring months, and re
port any nuisances or offending matter
that may cause pestilence.
